You'll build TypeScript and Node.js services, own complex third-party integrations and make decisions across scalability, security and reliability. You'll also strengthen testing, monitoring and deployment, taking responsibility for what you ship.
Whatyou'llbringStrong hands-on TypeScript/Node.js backend experience and examples of substantial services or integrations you've personally delivered. You'll be comfortable with SQL, APIs and cloud production systems, and enjoy making progress when requirements aren't fully defined.
Experience implementing AI features or agents - commercially or through substantial personal projects - would be particularly valuable. Above all, you'll enjoy taking initiative and having the responsibility to turn an idea into a working product.
